roadworks


Whoa
Nelly...


Hmph, I don't know nobody named Nelly.


MOUSES!


WHOA PEEPERS...


Better.


MOUSES!


Hey Peepers!  Have you seen what's goin' on out there?


Out there.


There!


Out there on the driveway, Peepers.  What are you, BLIND?


MOUSES!


Oh for mousin' out loud, Peepers, it seems I have to explain EVERYTHIN' these days.


Well if you don't want me catsplaining things to you, you'd better start bein' more observant and intelligent and stuff.


FINE, I shall explain.


*sighs*


We've got some major roadworks goin' on out on the driveway, Peepers.  Major roadworks, for sure!  There are roads goin' in here and there and pretty much everywhere.  Roads headin' north and east, and...  And...  And south and west, too!  


There must be a provincial election comin' up or somethin', I think.


What, no elections in the near future?


Well that makes no sense.


MOUSES!


Of course it makes no sense, Peepers.  Somethin' is up, for sure.  I was out there just this mornin' and I found roads...


Okay, so I was out there this mornin' and I found TRACKS all over the place.  Yup, tracks all over the place in the newly fallen snow.  There were squirrel tracks, bird tracks, cat tracks - not mine - and some really big tracks I couldn't identify.  And when I say big, I mean BIG.  Big as in HUGE.


I'm tellin' ya, I think we have a Sasquatch on our paws.


AN ABOMINABLE SNOWMAN, for sure.


Probably a really grumpy Abominable Snowman on account of that wet, heavy, sticky snow stickin' to his or her humongously hairy feet, and...


What?  What's that, Peepers?  What's that you're babblin' on about now?


The Abominable Snowman's tracks?  Oh, well they went straight down the driveway between the side door of the house, and the street.  They stropped right next to where you left the garbage last night.  It's a good thing you didn't encounter that ol' snowman, Peepers, 'cause rumours are swirlin' that he or she is pretty grumpy, for sure.  One might even say loathsome, disgustin', and vile.


You know, on account of abominable meanin' those things, and...


What?


Oh.


Really?


Hmmm....


So no Abominable Snowman, you say.  Those were YOUR tracks in the snow.


My gosh you've got big feet.


Wonder if they're hairy, too.


MOUSES!

    1. Does he leave big tracks, too? To be fair, I kinda think that maybe - MAYBE - Peepers' tracks might have expanded a bit as the temperature rose and her tracks started meltin'. Maybe. Either that or she has super big feet. MOUSES!

    1. They sure could. Can you IMAGINE had I had an Abominable Snowman on my paws? Hmmm... Does cat pee melt Abominables like it does regular snowmen? Askin' for a friend. MOUSES!

    1. Not MY fault the peep has big feet.

      Is it?

      Nah, can't be.

      Don't think.

      MOUSES!

  5. Wow! It was your Peep!?!? Our human brother has pontoons on the ends of his legs and we were sure that we had a Sasquatch! Hope you guys are staying warm!

  7. How huge re those feet. I mean, are they big enough to change the measuring system? Like twenty toes to the foot big. Not that your peep has twenty toes. Does she? Anyways, one sure way to check is sneak into the bed when she's asleep then feel along with your paws. If nothing else it will get her up, and whilst shes up she can get you some treats and check for that Sasquatch!
